Snezana Wood might look like she has it all - a loving husband and four children, a degree in molecular genetics and one of the biggest influencer profiles in Australia, but she's had her share of tough times. In this frank, inspiring memoir, Snezana reveals the good and the bad in her life and how she has learnt to embrace it all.
Before she went on The Bachelor and met her now husband, Sam Wood, Snezana was a kid who helped her parents every day after school in their second jobs as cleaners. She was a young woman who was told she couldn't pursue the career she wanted - to join the police force - because that wasn't a job for 'someone like her'. Then she was a single mother living with her parents so they could help her look after her daughter, Eve, while she worked full time and studied at university.
And while Snezana has become one of Australia's most popular influencers, her life isn't all glamour and Instagram photoshoots. After having two daughters, Willow and Charlie, with Sam, she was pregnant with her third when everything went terribly wrong. As soon as daughter Harper was born Snezana was urgently transferred to another hospital, seriously ill, her life in the balance. But she fought to get back to her family and made it through.
What makes Snezana beloved by so many Australians is that she is approachable and warm, but she doesn't sugar-coat the tough stuff. She makes the best of every day and in Embrace, she inspires us all to do the same.
